The Unofficial Guide to Getting Into Medical School, 2nd Edition

This book is designed to help you become one of the few applicants to get into a highly competitive medicine degree, based on the insights of over 300 medical students across 32 UK medical schools.

Written in a clear and engaging style, the Unofficial Guide offers unique content to help you stand out from the crowd with useful tips and information at every stage of the process. It demystifies what you can expect from the degree, talks you though writing the application, covers what you need to know (and appear to know) for the interview, and provides a full guide to exam preparation.

Updated to incorporate recent post-COVID changes to the admission process, and full of real-life examples from those who have succeeded before you, this will be a much-cherished companion for every would-be doctor.
